________ is one of the small set of data holding places that are part of a computer processor.
Answer: B
The answer is a register.
Registers are a small set of very fast storage locations built into the processor itself. They hold the data, addresses and instructions the CPU is working on at that moment, for example the accumulator, the program counter and the instruction register. They are the fastest memory in the computer.
VLSI (very large scale integration) is a chip-making technology, not a storage place. A hard disk and a magnetic disk are secondary storage devices outside the processor, far larger and far slower than registers.
